She woke up in a place that was really unfamiliar to her. She also woke up with a splitting head ache.

"Where am I?" she groaned.

"My place," said the synthesized voice of Red-X

"Why?" she asked quite puzzled.

"Because sunshine and daisies," he said. "Although you are not the hottest chickadee around, you are still worth something being a titan."

She just gave him a look of pure annoyance.

"Don't tell me you're going to sell me," she said in her famous monotone.

"Right on the mark sunshine," he replied his smirk nearly ripping a hole in his mask. "I'll start the bid at a low 100,000 for a month. The highest bidder wins. Although I don't expect the price to raise much."

Raven struggled to get free, her powers weren't working.

"What did you do to my powers?"

"I'm a genius chickadee, I create a nullifier. Didn't want you trying to escape on me now did I."

"Just fantastic, you bastard."

"I aim to please sunshine."

Boy did he annoy Raven, and man was she in for a horrible next few weeks.

'Robin you better find me fast,' she thought to herself.

…..

"We need to find her," Robin yelled. "It has been an entire day. She could be hurt, or scared, or hungry, or even dead."

"Friend Raven is strong." Starfire added trying to comfort her leader gone berserk.

"Yeah dude she'll be fine, "Beastboy added,

"We should still keep looking anyhow, "Cyborg suggested.

Everyone nodded as a reply.

…..

It had been a day since he began the auction and X decided to check on any bid placements. He opened expecting some to have raised the auction by about 1000 more. What he saw surprised him; was offering 150,000, 250,000. The church of blood was offering 500,000. The bids just kept rising. Now light was bidding 750,000.

"What the hell?" Red-X said. "So much dough for that thing."

He looked over to the girl who had fallen asleep in a very uncomfortable looking position.

She looked like she was in pain and X could hear her stomach grumble with hunger.

"What makes you so special?" he asked her not expecting reply.

" probably wants to experiment on me. I'm pretty sure wants to torture and do horrible things to me. The church of blood worships my father."

"Worships your father?" he asked curiously but got no reply."Whatever, well I am going to go eat. Don't go anywhere. Heheh."

"Bastard," she hissed.

To say Raven was hungry was an understatement she was starving. Before being kidnapped and put as an auction the only thing she had consumed was her tea. That was two days before her kidnapping. Red-X had her for three and a half days. She was pretty much malnourished by now. Not only was her stomach in pain, her self-esteem had taken a heavy blow as well.

Red-X sure had a talent for making you feel like ugly crap.

Tears silently slid slowly along her cheeks.

"Dammit Robin," she cried. "You're supposed to be a detective, Where are you?"

…..

His grass greens eyes analyzed her as she silently slept sitting on his chair. He was eating a waffle and he could hear her stomach painfully growl for nutrients.

"You really are a jerk," he heard her say weakly. "If I wasn't against killing, you would be in hell with my father."

He went up to her and stepped right in front of her.

His sandy brown hair billowing in the wind caused by the fan. He didn't have his mask on so you could see the malicious grin on his handsome face. He raised the ripped arm holding his water above her head and poured it on her.

"Here have drink sunshine," he said mockingly...

Furious was not the word to describe what Raven was feeling. Enraged was more like it. If the nullifier didn't work X would be in hell in seconds. Still she kept her cool not wanting to give X the satisfaction of seeing her angry.

"Full of pride," he said. "Well if I don't have the pleasure of breaking you, your next owner will."

He left the room leaving Raven to silently weep.

….

He knew he had gone too far with his last move. As ugly as he believes her to be, she was still a girl and Red-X had some chivalry left in him. Still his own arrogance kept him from apologizing.

He walked into his kitchen and grabbed a snack. He sat

Down and turned on his TV computer. He went to see the current biddings.

"Sebastian Blood," he said looking at the offer for 2,500,800 dollars. "That's quite the hefty price."

Then someone was putting in another auction.

"Slade huh," he said looking at the insignia. "Whoa 4,003,600 dollars tats a lot of money. Why so much for the weird titan?"

"Dear child," said Slade appearing on his screen. "You don't realize what you have with you. You are a fool if you believe d she wasn't worth much Jared."

"Well usually people pay good money for beauty and power," Jared (red-X) replied. "Not just power."

"Stupid boy have you ever actually looked at her face," Slade chuckled. "You'd be surprised at how wrong you are. Anyhow I do plan on winning this auction so try to keep her in good health."

"Sure," Jared replied uncaring.

Slades' face disappeared and Jared was left curious.

With his new found curiosity in Raven he went to actually judge her looks.

He got into her room and saw that she was asleep. She looked like she was a having a nightmare with all her fidgeting.

Slowly he pulled off her hood…

Well then here you go. Review and tell me what you think for the second chapter. I will try to get you another chapter by Wednesday.
